My 12-year-old daughter is in tears.I have so take a test tomorrow. I dont understand any of it, she cries out. After shouting and shutting her door, she calms down enough to go through her notes. The following dry I ask her how the test went and the just says OK,I got a nine.Wow. well done! I say, before she finishes with But I never get a ten!According to James, this obsession with getting top marks has been a bad development, which encourages people to think of education in terms of work and money. To test this, I asked my daughter why she was so worried about her tests. She looked at me as if I was thick. Well, if I dont get good grades, I wont be able to afford nice things like a car and stuff.I was quite surprised, because I dont consider myself a pushy parent. But James suggests and it leaves students feeling failures even if they are very bright. He points to the Danish system（体制）of education as a better model. Creating happy citizens who have good social skills is seen as more important than high achievements at school or the needs of business.For me, I cannot remember the last time I had to work out the area of a circle, recite a Shakespeare poem or grammar rules, yet I have lived a happy life. What I really needed to learn at school was how to make polite conversations, or how to avoid getting into debt or how to develop good personality.This is in fact similar to what Oliver James really has in mind. And he is looking for schools where students are encouraged to find and follow their own interests, something more like Tongjon. Tongjon has been developed in some Korean private schools. It is quite different from the more rigid system of learning things by heart that is used in Korea, and indeed in many other school systems around the world.As the Russian poet Pushkin said, Inspiration(灵感）is needed in geometry(几何学）just as much as in poetry ,and inspiration does not come from endlessly revising for tests or getting worried about them .（1）What does the writer probably think of his/her daughter?A . She sets herself a goal too high to reach.B . She should be more polite to her parents.C . She is hard-working but not very bright.D . She takes her grades much too seriously.（2）What does the word obsessionin paragraph 3 mean?A . A plain and unavoidable factB . A satisfied and very proud state.C . A practical and widely-used wayD . A fixed and often unreasonable idea.（3）What can we infer from the passage?A . Social skills are as important as high grades.B . Interest in grades can shake self-confidenceC . The writer regrets not having studied hard at school.D . Danish educational system is for very smart students.（4）The writer wants to tell us that_.A . learning happily is the key to self-development.B . top marks may be helpful to increase ones interest.C . tests should be improved to give children inspiration.D . education should meet ones needs for word and money.13. （10分）阅读理解International travelers, whether traveling for business or pleasure, will find themselves solo from time to time.

It is showed the life expectancy(平均寿命) had been cut down by 5.5 years there. Researchers think that the heavy air pollution in China should be to blame. Its really the truth. Our government has already done something. However, it doesnt seem to work so well.“Air pollution in China is doing harm to peoples health. The harm is much more serious than we can imagine,” said Chen Yuyu of Beijing University, one of researchers of this study.Dirty air brings serious problems in North China. In January this year, the air pollution was worse than that in other places. That was caused by rising temperature and waste gas from coal heating.Chinese government should strongly fight against air pollution. They should think of more proper ways to deal with the problem. People should be encouraged to take buses, ride bicycles or walk, instead of driving cars. The factories that pollute heavily should be closed.“We need to improve our environment, although it might be expensive. Protecting our environment means protecting ourselves,” Li Hongbin, another researcher of the study said.（1）The passage above may come from an advertisement.（2）The study showed the life expectancy had been cut down by 5.5 years in North China.（3）Air pollution is very harmful to people.（4）People shouldnt be encouraged to take more transportation .（5）People need to make pollution less, although it might cost a lot.15. （5分）阅读下面短文，根据短文内容回答问题On September 19, Alibaba went public (上市) on the New York Shock Exchange.
